The last scene is always the same, you with Panam, if that's what you meant. Monowire is more fun now past 1.5, seems damage buff and now considered a blade. My assault rifle character might just switch to that, hah.

I don't think Katphood's point was that the West played Ukraine into the war as planned but more by accident, but that is my interpretation of his point. But some positives for the West here, damage Russia, NATO is motivated and spending more on defense (stimulus for LM! :P)

That was my point. But to be even let in to NATO you need approval of the existing members, so I suppose it can't just be driven one way in any case. They're being used right now as in the proxy soldiers to fight Russia.

I guess it depends on how much they are being wooed to join NATO. But now, well, I guess they are being used a bit - who made the joke about the US fighting to the last Ukrainian ?

Well, most likely "war and ruin" on TV.

One of the more creative "there are reports..." tweets I've seen.

Nah, for social situations I just tell them I have other stuff to do - like clean bathroom or laundry or whatever. This stuff is reserved for getting out of working weekends, I only work those to help out the guys who actually have families

Is why I plan on inventing a wife and two kids. Some people say waging a misinformation campaign on your coworkers is a sign of mental illness, I say, it's practical.

Today's excitement was explaining to a PM that an issue doesn't progress much between 1600 Friday and 1000 Monday.

I regret not investing in LM.

Was just thinking of the effect in volume as well. Not saying they'll rout from just that (stories on Reddit aside) though, suppose in the context of people trying to kill you from afar doesn't really add too much.

The lower case omega one is accurate.

Was interesting to think about how veterans of Western conflicts would react to this, in their combat tours they've likely never had to deal with artillery and airstrikes incoming. Must be a bit jarring to not be in a one sided fight 😛

Interesting way to send a message regardless.

Oh God no, military Youtubers! 😛

Not quite sure how that makes sense, at least in terms of them being emboldened to do so. They're attacking a non-NATO member now, so NATO's level of involvement is totally voluntary, but attacking a NATO member such as Lithuania or Estonia is different, no ? In any case, their army is performing so poorly, seems any NATO member would hold their own quite well.

Wonder if nuclear proliferation will get worse.

Have any of those ? Didn't hunt too hard but all I found was Ukrainian agencies. Did see one POW say they were shooting deserters, though.

1km should be at most, not least, given that's the maximum range of the weapon in theory.

Wake me up when they purge the neckbeards from it.

What does Ja Rule think about this crisis ?

I prefer using a sound card, onboard Wi-Fi might be handy, even though I have a card here (2.4 only though.). But yeah, I take your point on the 5600x, the price's not that much more anyway, is sort of negligible over all. Paying for whatever GPU I get is going to hurt so much.
